patients encouraged to keep up-to-date medication lists
November 2012
You'll see patients encouraged to keep up-to-date medication lists.
It's not unusual for a patient's med list at the doctor's office to vary as much as 90% from the list in the pharmacy profile.
Keeping an up-to-date med list can help a patient remember what and how much they're using...communicate with prescribers about their meds...alert hospitals about which meds they're taking if admitted...and allow pharmacies to check for drug interactions and other safety issues.
